sr1230nx by duh
First one froze right out the box. Took back, 2nd run for about 2 months, started slowing down, now freezing randomly. Stops responding, but hard drive is spinning? No viruses or ad ware (hijackers). Disappointed, Asus board. Memtest turns up no errors. Runs slower than PII 300a.

Modem Driver for Armada M700 by Jonathan E
Hi I'm trying to resurrect an old Armada M700. Got everything working fine except MODEM and NIC. Can't work out which drivers I need. The card has a ref of U98.003.C.00 which I think is a combo MODEM/NIC with Lucent & Intel chipsets.

What I don't understand is why the monitor cable has no extra cord attached to it that would be for the microphone usage. Also there is a hole in...
